Not very happy with this doctor, left a poor review for his office because I felt he wasnt taking my symptoms seriously, the symptoms I have, have brought me to tears on multiple occasions as I have a complete lack of energy, and have woken up chocking on stone like objects in my throat causing me to just not be able to catch my breath. He then proceeded to call me and confront me on the review with my mri diagnosis like a two in one for him. In one breath he says we want to help you but in the next breath he tells me it sounds like you have anxiety issues. Just overall rubbing me the wrong way when it comes to diagnosing my issues. Im the kind of person that does not ask for help unless I feel like Im dying. This issue is very serious and has been impacting my health hard enough that Ive called off work for the past 3 weeks and been to urgent care 3 times plus this ent and all the lab visits. If you value feeling herd this doctor is not the one. I really try to be fair to people but this doctor just has a way of just making me feel crazy, versus herd and diagnosed. Come to find out theres tonsil cysts, but even then its like he just kept doubling down and saying that the cysts are small and really shouldnt be the root issue, its more likely my nasal deviation coupled with sleep apnea and anxiety. Sounds to me like the 2 weeks worth of two separate antibiotics, steroids, and and in hailer, helped with the infection and the cysts shrank back but when infected again can grow in size and cause the exact symptoms Im describing, sounds to me like removing the cysts and tonsils would be a great place to start. Wait and the tonsils are in a place that when you get any illness at all are the first to get infected and swell, hmm. Im not doubting the deviated septum, but his attitude during this process just seemed to be combative like I was some crazy patient that couldnt possibly have a brain to diagnose symptoms like that. He says, and again Ive described in this review my throat basically gets clogged like the cyst lumps moves into my airway to the point I cant breath, he says if you feel you need to go to the er for faster results thats fine but I need to follow the process, and its not necessary for you to go. If someone cant breathe please go to the ER, dont listen to this guy, trust your gut, get a second opinion. All he had to do was level with me, be a little humble and schedule the surgery to remove the cyst and tonsils, I guarantee I would have felt better and continued on with this doctor for the deviated septum surgery and sleep study, as I feel he has some very valid points there that would help improve my overall health. However I definitely dont trust a doctor to give me surgery that will confront me on a review when nothing has been fixed. Worst of it he never acknowledged any of the ADA paperwork I needed done for my job, so Im also fighting to keep my job. He gave me a messily 3 day doctor note.
